Lincoln never sent freed slaves to Liberia or Central/South America. 

So much for your claims of ‘researching everything’.

But damn did he try hard to do it

No, he didn’t try to ‘send’ them anywhere. That word implies force. Lincoln supported voluntary colonization for freed slaves, and also supported their right to remain in the US if they so desired. From your link:

. In his annual December message to Congress that year (his second "State of the Union" Message), he reiterated his strong support for government expenditure on colonization for those who wanted to go, but he also noted that objections to free blacks remaining in the United States were baseless, "if not sometimes malicious."
